To configure PingDirectory Server to get traffic through a load balancer and to record the actual client's IP address:

  1. Edit the HTTP or HTTPS connection handler object and set use-forwarded-headers to true by running dsconfig. 
    dsconfig set-connection-handler-prop \
    --handler-name "HTTPS Connection Handler" \
    --set use-forwarded-headers:true
  2. To finalize the changes to the HTTP or HTTPS connection handler, use dsconfig to restart the connection handler. 
    dsconfig set-connection-handler-prop \
    --handler-name "HTTPS Connection Handler" \
    --set enabled:false

dsconfig set-connection-handler-prop \
    --handler-name "HTTPS Connection Handler" \
    --set enabled:true
  3. To provide the X-Forwarded-* information to your load balancer, consult your provider's guide on configuring the load balancer settings.
